Phew, busy day...

The day got away from me and I'm finally getting a few minutes to sit down at the computer.  Bedtime is around the corner for my kids so I'd better make this quick. 
My dh goes into work late on Mondays so today I was able to sneak out of the house to do a bit of thrifting while the girls napped.   I snatched up some great vintage fabrics that I will make into totes, though I think the first fabric on the left is calling out "skirt".  The fabric colors are so vibrant and alive.

In this next batch, the colors are not so vibrant, but they will sew up nicely as sun dresses or tank tops for the girls this summer.  The rick rack should also help liven things up too.

Isn't this a beautiful vintage table cloth? It is a bit too short for my kitchen table, what to do? what to do?

I also picked up some old wooly sweaters that I'm going to felt, I didn't get pics of those items yet but will take some later.  I'm not totally sure yet what to do with them.  It all depends on how they felt.  I was thinking of making some stuffed toys, but who knows maybe slippers or a bag will work too.


Gotta run...
